Pigeon River - Leaf Season II

Pigeon River - Leaf Season II

I made a pilgrimage back to the same stretch of river I had explored in the other Pigeon River painting. This time it was leaf season and traffic was snarled for more than 20 miles as the procession of Fall leaf watchers hugged the edges of the mountains. I was never so glad to abandon the main road and take a break in this section of the river away from the city-stye traffic jam.

    This very pretty, paintedsoul! It reminds me of Oregon, where I’m from originally! Peaceful and untouched in so many places. Nicely done! I feel acrylics are difficult.

  • thepaintedsoul replied

    Hey Jean. Thanks for dropping by to have a look. I wish I could see the original again. Alas its home is northern Michigan. : >D Acrylics do seem tougher to get a look I’m wanting. But I feel like I’m slowly getting more comfortable with them. Have a great week! TPS
